Riyadh Season 2026 Sports Lineup Moves Ahead

Riyadh Season 2026 is set to open in Riyadh on 21 October 2026 and continue for 10 weeks, with organizers confirming that the season's sports calendar is moving ahead as planned despite some logistical adjustments.

The programming lineup features a strong mix of combat and racket sports, including boxing, wrestling, UFC events, and the Six Kings Slam tennis tournament. The tennis event was postponed due to logistical challenges and has been rescheduled for 27–30 December 2026 at ANB Arena in Riyadh, with tickets starting at SAR 200.

Wrestling fans can also look forward to WWE Crown Jewel, scheduled for 7 November 2026 at the King Abdullah Financial District. Access and ticketing for events across the season are handled through the WeBook Saudi platform.

Beyond the sports calendar, several Riyadh Season destinations are listed as operating, including Boulevard World, Boulevard City, Wonder Garden, The Groves, Farmers' Market, and Ana Arabia at VIA Riyadh, offering a wide range of entertainment and dining options for residents and visitors.

For the community in Riyadh and across the Kingdom, the season remains one of the busiest periods on the entertainment calendar. Residents and expats planning to attend are advised to secure tickets early through the official platform, as event timings and availability may vary.
